2012 Movie Wrap-up

fritters
In 2012, I took a page from my brother-in-law Gavin and kept track of the movies I watched for the first time during the year. Clearly, we had a lot going on with the move and settling in to a new job and all that, but still- this list is a bit disappointing! I currently have three movies sitting on the DVR that I never got to this month. I've watched a bunch of TV series this year, but for someone who calls herself a pop culture enthusiast, I'm disappointed in myself. I'm hoping to get to the Best Picture Showcase again this year. That will be a start. I'll just have to try harder this year.

Wha? I loved that movie when I saw it. I still think it's a great intro for Ed Norton. The book's ending was a bit different.

I just thought it was silly. Ed Norton was "literally chewing the scenery."

Maybe it was a movie of its time...you know, the rush rush days of the 90's, where we were young and naive.
